Holder scored more in the heats so gets more points for his 2nd place finish. One of the (very) few things that mKe sense tbf!

Good financial decision those golden racejackets, they'll only end up making 2 of them.

That was superb full stop, never mind for Prague! Excellent stuff. Go on Leon 💰

He had a golden opportunity on lap 3 when MJJ made a mistake, only to then make a worse mistake himself.

"do you think he did anything wrong?" as he hurtles towards the fence sans bike.

Thanks. Absolutely ridiculous. If only every rider faced each other once or something to make it a bit simpler.

What rule am I missing re. Madsen/Holder? Holder faster in qualifying, beat Madsen, same scores, etc.

£200 - Madsen MORE £100 - Fricke MORE £100 - Kurtz LESS

Must be getting to the point where risking a parking ticket is a cheaper option!

Yes, let's base our GP qualifier picks on a single meeting that took place over a year ago. Harris was barely good enough to be a GP rider in his prime, and he certainly isn't good enough now. 43 years old being selected for a qualifier while two youngsters sit on their hands. Dear me.

I think we'll beat Germany and Sweden, but I don't think we have a rider in the class of Bubba Bednar or Parnitskyi, like the other outsiders do, and that probably stops us seriously challenging for a medal. Hope I'm wrong.

I like both of these ideas - but what's the threshold for a rider's average at a certain track? Let's remember, we all lived long enough to see James Grieves win a race at Owlerton. Do we use that meeting for his 'Sheffield average'? Billy Legg once scored a 3-ride paid max, do we use that as his home average? These are edge cases of course, but sod's law dictates it'll be the way that the rule is tested the firast time.

I don't doubt you're right about following the money, but Cairns should be there over Killeen regardless, imo. There isn't much between them on scores this season, and one has a lot more potential than the other.

Far too sentimental and loyal at times. I'm not sure it's gone under the radar, but Rushen just seems to be getting on with scoring points + winning races at both levels, having barely turned 16. Him, Cairns and Harrison should be the 3.

“Hopefully that will encourage more supporters to make the trip as Sheffield is just about as central as you can get when you look at the current clubs in the Championship." You know what? Fair play, that actually makes a lot of sense, which is not something the BSPL have always been good at. It does raise the question, using their same logic, why they chose Poole to host the pairs?

"The man has undergone complicated spinal surgery. He is currently in the intensive care unit and will undergo further CT scans today for further diagnosis. I can say that his condition is serious. The young player's surgery was completed after 3 a.m. ," Zuzanna Pankros, spokesperson for the Poznań hospital, told us. "We can't provide too much detailed information, and at this point we can't even talk about any prognosis. Every hour is precious . Today's CT scan will show whether we know everything, or whether other ailments have surfaced. The situation is truly grave, and we're all keeping our fingers crossed for the young man," concludes Zuzanna Pankros. https://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/1250038/zawodnik-po-fatalnym-wypadku-juz-po-operacji-mamy-nowe-informacje-stan-jest-ciez Truly awful. The main thing is that he pulls through obviously, but this isn't good at all.

Sportowefakty's update that a respirator was needed at the helipad is very worrying. Everything crossed he can pull through.

£100 Woryna MORE £100 Lindgren LESS £50 Fricke LESS

Starting to think they've leveraged the power of AI and used it to replace Kelvin. It's just malfunctioning ATM.

Bowes must thank his lucky stars that he's Australian, there can't be any other reason he gets so many opportunities. He's 25 this year and has barely achieved a 6pt average across his 5 seasons in U24 Ekstraliga + Championship. I don't think many Brits would get the same chances.

What a miracle. I didn't think you'd be the one defending this sort of rubbish. It doesn't bother me either way - I don't support either club - but this sort of thing is commonplace in British speedway now. There's no need to defend it.

Interesting to read. I'm sure you'll still have someone saying Zmarzlik only wins because of a lot of Polish tracks.

"He then asked if there if a replay was available (yes he should have asked before announcing but hindsight is a wonderful thing)" Hindsight, or just doing your job properly to begin with. Same difference.

I'm still not seeing the charity - they qualified for this via the SoN, nobody has handpicked Ukraine to ride in this. They've also ridden in every SoN bar one, even before Russia invaded, so that doesn't stack up either. Out of curiosity, who would you pick for the Russian team? Presumably Artem and Emil are a no-go, now they're Polish citizens? Guess we'd be back to 2021 with Vladimir Borodulin, Sergey Logachev and Mark Karion, when they finished below France and Latvia.
